Where can I get detailed information on the printer settings, ink remaining, paper used, etc.?


GARO status monitor -> Information Tab -> Status Display

Here is some of the information that is displayed:

  • your serial number, handy if your printer is up against a wall and you can't easily see the back
  • the ink remaining in each cartridge presented numerically rather than graphically
  • the numbers (offsets?) from the head alignment procedure. May be helpful in diagnosing a problem with your printer.
  • head lot numbers
  • how much you have used the cutter, cassette, roll holder, with a breakdown by media type
  • many of the printer control panel current settings
  • parts status (cryptic)

You can save this information to a file by clicking on "Status Saving" on the Information tab.
